Features

  • Introducing... Zen Mode! 🕉️
    • Now moderators can focus on moderating one comment at a time by using the z shortcode while on the Moderate tab
    • Hint: once in Zen Mode, use the other keyboard shortcuts to have a mouse-free moderating experience
  • Improve formatting of comment cards in the Admin
  • UX improvements so that commenters can't reply to comments that have been removed in the time they're writing their comment by alerting them that this is the case

Migration Support

  • Improve migrations to support larger scale migrations

  • Add new flags to the migrations cli:

    $ ./bin/cli migration run --help

  Usage: run [options]

  runs all pending migrations

  Options:

    -q, --query-batch-size <n>   change the size of queried 
      documents that are batched at a time (default: 100)
    -u, --update-batch-size <n>  change the size of documents
      that are batched before the update is sent (default: 1000)
    -y, --yes                    will answer yes to all questions
    -h, --help                   output usage information

Dev Support

  • Plugins are now relative to the installation directory rather than the current working directory, improving the plugin experience
  • Add an index to the actions collection based on the action_id
  • Error Handling Improvements including
    -withQuery and withMutation now produces an HOC that supports a parameter notifyOnError: boolean which defaults to true. If notifyOnError is true, a notification is shown to the user when the mutation or query has failed.
  • Replace previous moderation array with a more modular approach and replaces pre-git with pre-commit to simplify the development workflow
  • Improve Webpack performance (ref: #1297)
  • Add Dynamic Public path support (ref: #1331)

CLI Support

  • cli users: Improve users delete CLI support
    • Remove old code related to db verifications from user deletion
    • Introduce migration concepts to resolve updating counts
  • cli assets: In situations where URL's need to change, or there is a duplicate comment stream, the best recommendation is to use a combination of CLI tools to rectify the situation (ref: #1290):

    • You can use the ./bin/cli assets list to find assets in the system

    • You can use the ./bin/cli assets merge <srcID> <dstID> to merge two assets by their ID's, moving all comments into the sources ID

    • You can now use ./bin/cli assets rewrite <searchPattern> <replacementPattern> that will use a regex search + replace of urls. This can be extremely useful if you are switching to a new domain, or changing your site from http/https to https-only.

    • The best method to mitigate all of these is to provide a asset specific ID into the embed using the:

      Talk.render(el, {
  // ...
  asset_id: "<myAssetID>",
  // ...
});

    • You can also use our [Custom Asset ID Plugin](https://github.com/coralproject/talk-plugin-custom-asset-id plugin)

      // Example usage.
const withBanUser = withMutation(...);

const enhance = compose(
  withBanUser({notifyOnError: false})
);

export default enhance(MyComponent);
